After unforgettable seasons set against the sultry backdrops of Hawaii, Sicily, and Thailand, HBO’s The White Lotus is said to be taking its next chapter to France—and speculation is swirling around which lavish location will play host to the drama, decadence, and slow-burn social satire that’s made the series so irresistible.
While no hotel has been officially confirmed, the show’s allegiance to Four Seasons properties—and ultra-exclusive resorts in general—suggests Season 4 will once again unfurl its stories in a destination as rich in wellness as it is in wealth. If you’re craving the glamour before the premiere, here are the rumoured French hotels you can book now — each a wellness haven in its own right.
Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel
Arguably the frontrunner, this iconic Riviera retreat offers the perfect cinematic mix of French elegance, old-Hollywood nostalgia, and modern Mediterranean wellness. Perched on a peninsula between Nice and Monaco, the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat has hosted a century of luminaries—and would feel right at home as the series’ next opulent setting.
Set across six hectares of pine-dotted gardens, the hotel offers sweeping sea views, Michelin-starred cuisine, and a spa experience that redefines Riviera wellness. Think hydrotherapy rituals, alfresco yoga with views of the azure coast, and lounging poolside at the Club Dauphin—a saltwater infinity pool suspended between sea and sky.

Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris
Though the series is rumoured to be primarily set in the South of France, precedent suggests Paris might still make a cameo. Much like Season 3 explored both Koh Samui and Bangkok, a detour to the City of Light wouldn’t be surprising—especially if the storyline calls for high fashion and deeper introspection.
The Four Seasons Hotel George V, just steps from the Champs-Élysées, is a sanctuary of Parisian glamour with Art Deco interiors, award-winning restaurants, and a holistic spa that blends French sophistication with deeply restorative treatments. Picture characters slipping between emotional breakthroughs and facials, indulging in a Parisian hammam escape or sharing secrets over botanical teas on a private terrace with the Eiffel Tower shimmering in the background.

Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc
If The White Lotus aims to elevate its aesthetic further into the realm of legend, there is perhaps no better setting than Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc. Part of the Oetker Collection and one of the world’s most celebrated addresses, it’s a wellness lover’s paradise that doubles as a palace.
Set on the tip of Cap d’Antibes and surrounded by pine groves and crystalline waters, the hotel offers restorative luxury in every detail—from Dior Spa Eden-Roc’s curated rituals to the saltwater infinity pool carved into the coastal rocks. Accommodations are split across three historic buildings, styled with 18th-century charm and understated grace. With proximity to Nice, Cannes, and Monaco, it’s an ideal filming base—and a transformative place for guests chasing renewal and revelation.

Cheval Blanc St-Tropez
For those who favour intimacy and Riviera flair, Cheval Blanc St-Tropez might just be The White Lotus’ most exclusive possibility. With only 32 rooms and suites—plus the ultra-private Villa Riviera—this seasonal gem redefines beachfront seclusion.
The property’s Cheval Blanc Spa by Guerlain offers bespoke treatments crafted in harmony with the sea, sun, and the surrounding pine forest. From warm stone rituals to made-to-measure facials, wellness here is sensual, immersive, and hyper-personalised. Although its seasonality (May–October) could pose challenges for production, the potential for lush, sun-drenched scenes filled with quiet luxury makes it a strong contender.

Four Seasons Hotel Megève
While a mountain setting might seem like a curveball, rumours persist that Four Seasons Hotel Megève could play a role—either as the main location or an alpine escape within the narrative. With sweeping views of Mont Blanc and a legacy tied to the Rothschild family, this winter-and-summer resort is the pinnacle of Alpine wellness.
The spa—the largest in the region—features an indoor-outdoor pool, hammams, and treatments designed to soothe and recalibrate after days spent skiing, hiking, or simply being. Here, characters could unravel amidst the snow, find clarity in nature, or descend deeper into themselves—all framed by firelight, fondue, and fine wine.
